Abstract

Enhancement of photoluminescence (PL) signal from Gd3+-doped silica glass densified by rapid thermal treatment (RTT) in the ultraviolet (UV) is investigated. Significant decrease of the loss covering the UV band is observed. The strong emission detected at 314 nm is assigned to the 6P7/2 to 8S7/2 transition under excitation of 6DJ, 6IJ, and 6PJ energy levels of the Gd3+.
